<br>&gt; Don't worry, if it's obviously in use we're not going to start
<br>&gt; throwing servers in there.
<br>
<br>It's the room to the left of the darkroom/biolab ("The Otters pocket").
<br>
<br>It currently has, in the handbasin area:
<br>
<br>The vacuum kit, currently bring worked on by Sci. This stuff is important 
<br>and should not be messed about with in anyway.
<br>
<br>A broken bandsaw - i talked to Phil about it recently and he was of the 
<br>opinion that it was junk and should be chucked. If anyone knows anything 
<br>about bandsaws and wants to have a look at it that would be great.
<br>
<br>and in the toilet area:
<br>
<br>Some long large dia. plastic tubing that was the golf ball race/cupcake 
<br>delivery system thing.
<br>
<br>some golf balls.
<br>
<br>some parts for an electic bike conversion (or something like that), with 
<br>an expired(?) DNH sticker - I phoned the number on the sticker but got no 
<br>reply to the message i left, it can be chucked out now.
<br>
<br>There was a load of other stuff in the toilet area that i clared out over 
<br>the last week or 2 with a view to putting the 19in rack that came back 
<br>from emfcamp in that room, but it's clear now that we can't really justify 
<br>putting a full rack in there, and there isn't really enough room for 
<br>it anyway. (It would have to go in a corner and it would be a real pain to 
<br>mount stuff in it).
<br>
<br>That room dosn't have power or a network connection, it also carries the 
<br>fume extraction pipe from the laser cutter and everything in the room is 
<br>covered in a thin layer of brownish gunk from mdf cutting fumes. Personaly 
<br>I don't think it's a good place to put a server cos of the fumes, but we 
<br>don't have much choice.
<br>
<br>We could put it on a shelf high up in one of the real toilets. The noise 
<br>wouldn't be a problem and it would help to keep the toilets warm (esp. 
<br>important as we get into winter!) and the pretty flashing lights would 
<br>give people something to look at while they do there business :P
<br>
<br>P.S. The space has a nameing scheme for servers etc:
<br>
<br><a href="http://wiki.london.hackspace.org.uk/view/System_naming" target="_blank">http://wiki.london.hackspace.<wbr>org.uk/view/System_naming</a>
<br>
<br>Maybe 'neumann' since it will have multiple vm's on it?
<br>
<br>P.P.S. in case it isn't clear to people this vm machine will be running 
<br>24/7 (as it's a replacement for babbage), The 'monster' machine is a 
<br>seperate idea, and will only be on when we are using it, and may not be i
